Guide
A quick look at the pipeline behind each search, and what to set up before your first one.
Scanline queries the Meta Ad Library API for active ads matching your keyword and country.
Each ad is checked against your filters: creative age, landing page quality, format.
Facebook Page fields first, the brand's own website second, your enrichment provider as fallback.
Deduped and scored, ready to download as CSV or copy straight into outreach.
At developers.facebook.com, then complete identity verification — required for Ad Library access. This is usually the slowest step, so start it first.
With the ads_read permission, then paste it into Integrations.
Hunter.io or Apollo.io — used only when a brand's Page and site don't list public contact info.
Head to Home, pick a broad niche keyword over an exact brand name, and step through Search → Filter → Results → Export.
The same ad has been running unchanged for 60+ days — usually a sign no one's actively managing the account.
The ad's destination is slow, unclear, or just a raw social profile instead of a real site — your web dev pitch.
No video or Reels in rotation — an opening for your content and social pitch.
Email or phone already resolved — no enrichment needed, ready for outreach now.
